AutoStore vs Mujin Pick System

AutoStore develops warehouse robotics and software that automate and coordinate order fulfillment through a cube storage system. The system combines a Controller, Robots, an aluminum Grid, storage Bins, and workstation Ports. Grid layouts can be configured around floorspace, corners, pillars, pipes, and walls. CubeControl coordinates operations and robot traffic, while AutoStore Intelligence optimizes routing with historical and operational data. CubeAnalytics provides system-status monitoring, predictive outlier information, module-performance trends, and dashboards. Open APIs and standard interfaces connect with WMS, ERP, order-management systems, and third-party hardware. The Qubit Fulfillment Platform is built for complex enterprise networks and multi-site operations, with order management, batching, pick-and-pack workflows, replenishment, and inventory tracking that includes lot and expiration control. AutoStore offers cloud deployment, API access, simulation tools, and multi-site management. Pricing is on request. Its Performance per Pick model uses recurring per-pick fees, monthly adjustments, upfront Grid investment, and typically a three-to-five-year minimum term. Qualified partners distribute, install, and service systems.

Mujin Pick System uses MujinOS to automate robotic case picking in warehouses handling varied products and high order volumes. Its perception and spatial intelligence identify cases in unstructured settings, while motion planning adjusts how robots pick and place them in real time. Robots can work across shifts and order types, and the system accommodates new SKUs and workflow changes without engineering downtime. It can assemble aisle-ready pallets from inbound cases, accounting for different packages and SKUs. Workflow-based orchestration coordinates robots, autonomous mobile robots, and operators, with adaptive load sharing. Digital twin tools plan and simulate motion paths for validation before go-live; Mujin states this enables uninterrupted operation and 99.9% uptime. MujinOS connects to WMS, WES, and MES through open APIs and standardized protocols. GraphQL and ITIL interfaces expose system data, performance metrics, and motion control, while the MCX platform supports Ethernet/IP, Profinet, Modbus, and multi-robot connectivity. It runs via web and API. Pricing is on request.
